Our Commitment to Player Welfare
bs96 operates on a clear principle: every player who creates an account should be able to manage their activity freely and safely. We provide real-money entertainment, and that comes with a responsibility to offer practical controls — not just small-print disclaimers.
Responsible gaming at bs96 means giving you the tools to set boundaries, the information to recognise when play has become a problem, and direct access to support if you need it. No feature on bs96 is designed to override a limit you have set for yourself.
Age Verification and the 18+ Rule
You must be at least 18 years old to register and play on bs96. During the KYC process — which must be completed before your first withdrawal — bs96 requires one of the following documents:
- National ID Card (MyKad / NID)
- Passport
- Driving Licence
Our compliance team reviews submitted documents within 12 hours. Accounts found to belong to anyone under 18 are closed immediately and any balance is forfeited in line with our Terms & Conditions. If you suspect a minor is using your account details, contact our 24/7 Live Chat straight away.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling does not always look dramatic. It often starts with small habit changes. The list below is not diagnostic, but if several items describe your recent behaviour, it is worth pausing and speaking to someone.
- Spending more than you planned, more often than you planned
- Borrowing money or selling belongings to fund your play
- Chasing losses — depositing again immediately after losing to "win it back"
- Gambling affecting your sleep, work or relationships
- Lying to family or friends about how much time or money you spend on gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable or restless when you try to cut down
- Using gambling to cope with stress, loneliness or low mood
Quick Self-Assessment
Answer these four questions honestly. If you answer "yes" to two or more, we recommend using the account controls described below or contacting a support organisation.
- Have you ever needed to gamble with more money to get the same feeling of excitement?
- Have you ever returned to gambling the next day to try to win back money you lost?
- Have you ever hidden gambling activity from people close to you?
- Has gambling ever caused you a serious financial problem?
This is not a clinical tool. For a full assessment, speak to Talian Kasih (15999), Malaysia's national social welfare helpline, or visit a Klinik Kesihatan near you.
Account Controls: What You Can Set
Logged-in players can request the following limits through the Account Settings page or via 24/7 Live Chat. All limit requests that reduce your spending are applied immediately. Requests to increase a limit or lift an exclusion are subject to a 48-hour cooling-off period before taking effect.
| Control | What It Does | How to Change It |
|---|---|---|
| Deposit Limit | Sets a daily, weekly or monthly cap on how much you can add to your account (minimum RM20 per transaction still applies). | Account Settings or Live Chat; reductions apply instantly. |
| Session Reminder | Sends an on-screen prompt after a time interval you choose (30 min, 1 hr, 2 hr). | Account Settings; active from the moment you save. |
| Loss Limit | Prevents further wagers once your net losses reach a set amount within a rolling 24-hour window. | Account Settings; increases require a 48-hour review. |
| Cooling-Off Period | Temporarily suspends your account for 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days. You can still withdraw any remaining balance. | Live Chat only; active within one hour of request. |
| Self-Exclusion | Closes your account for a minimum of 6 months or permanently. All marketing communications stop immediately. | Live Chat only; irreversible for the duration chosen. |
How to Set Limits in Three Steps
-
1Log In to Your Account
Open bs96 on the app or browser and go to your profile icon in the top right corner.
-
2Open Account Settings
Select "Responsible Gaming" from the sidebar menu. All available controls appear on a single screen.
-
3Set and Confirm
Enter your preferred limit value or duration, review the summary and tap "Confirm". Reductions are live straight away.
If you cannot access your account for any reason, contact our 24/7 Live Chat and our support team can apply any of the above controls on your behalf within one hour.
Self-Exclusion and Cooling-Off Periods
A cooling-off period is a short pause — from 24 hours up to 30 days. During this window your account is locked, but it reopens automatically at the end of the period unless you extend it. It is useful when you need a break without permanently closing your account.
Self-exclusion is a longer, binding commitment. When you self-exclude on bs96 for 6 months or permanently, we:
- Immediately prevent any login to your account
- Remove you from all promotional and marketing lists
- Block any new account registrations from your verified identity and device
- Allow you to withdraw any remaining positive balance within 14 days of exclusion
To lift a 6-month self-exclusion, you must contact Live Chat after the exclusion period has fully expired. There is a mandatory 7-day waiting period before reinstatement is considered. Permanent exclusions are not reversible.
Keeping Minors Away from bs96
If you share a device with people under 18, we recommend using parental control software to block access to gambling sites. Free tools such as Net Nanny and Family Link (Android) allow you to restrict categories of websites at the device level, independent of any controls bs96 offers.
Never share your bs96 login credentials or allow a minor to use your device while you are logged in. Under our Terms & Conditions, the account holder is responsible for all activity that occurs under their credentials.

Questions About Responsible Gaming
Can I set a deposit limit before I make my first deposit?
Yes. You can set a deposit limit from Account Settings immediately after registration, before you make any deposit. We recommend doing this during account setup so the limit is in place from day one.
What happens to my bonus balance if I self-exclude?
Any incomplete bonus with an unmet wagering requirement (23x on the welcome bonus) is forfeited at the point of self-exclusion. Your real-money balance is not affected and can be withdrawn within 14 days of the exclusion taking effect.
Will bs96 ever contact me with promotions after I self-exclude?
No. All marketing, SMS, and email communications are stopped the moment your self-exclusion is confirmed. If you receive any promotional contact from bs96 after self-excluding, please report it to our Live Chat team so we can investigate.
Can I request a cooling-off period in the middle of a live session?
Yes. Contact 24/7 Live Chat at any time. The cooling-off period is applied within one hour of your request being confirmed. Any active game round is settled according to its normal outcome before the account lock takes effect.
Is there a way to see my full betting and deposit history?
Yes. Your transaction history and bet history are available under Account Settings. You can view the last 90 days of activity directly on the platform. For records beyond 90 days, contact our support team via Live Chat and we can provide a statement.
What if a family member is using gambling to cope with financial hardship?
Gambling to recover financial losses typically makes the situation worse. Please encourage them to call Talian Kasih (15999) or visit a Klinik Kesihatan for a free referral. If they have a bs96 account and you have their consent, our Live Chat can initiate a voluntary account suspension at their request.
